COLD
RIVER LADY were discovered by PETE BROWN (who wrote the
lyrics for CREAM’s major Hits 'Sunshine Of Your Love, White
Room', I Feel Free') in the spring of 1971 and he was very taken with
CRL’s song writing efforts and offered them a publishing deal with his
company. Over the next few years Pete worked with the band producing a
number of demos and encouraging them to turn full time professional.

The
band got a residency at The Greyhound, Fulham, London then went off to
Europe to tour but they never got that elusive record deal and the band
disbanded in 1976. In 1991 Pete formed his own production company
(Interoceter Records) and asked the band to reform to record an album
and 'Better Late Than Never' is the result of that reformation producing
an album 'that has a strong folk influence, but sophisticated flavours
from the likes of Arthur Lee, Tim Buckley and Caravan were also present
in the mix'
